Hey Bigbro,

Thanks for the reply. I know the mass produced tiki masks you're talking about, because I'm from the Philippines and I see them all the time.

Although I love my country, i hate those un-inspired knock-offs. Looking at the mask closely, it doesn't look like a knock-off though. It looks too detailed to be un-inspired.

I don't know when you return, but please sift through your oceanic art books to confirm.

Thanks,
